That's all I needed to get a 5 player LAN going, thank you. The site being gone is a pain and farena12 is about as unintuitive as things can get, I wouldn't have found it.



Well, one way or another it's good to get these files up where people can access them, thank you very much.

Not a problem! I however did find you that qwprogs.dat as you requested, if you ever want to play some friendly RA games hit me up. We all play at quake.shmack.net:26001 , the really only viable RA server online now days.

If you wish to play nostalgic RA ( complete with waiting rooms), I think ClanHDz still runs one at ra.clanhdz.com ,I keep forgetting about that server...

woop's, I have more than just the old RA mod archive file. I'll upload and post links here shortly for you.

The original RocketArena site is also gone, the original RocketArena mod was farena12.zip
Slot runs runs his own version of RA, a sub-mod of his RuneQuake mod. (plays identical to original RA,except does not employ "Waiting" rooms) The original RA is outdated to hell and back,and contains a hidden map with nudie pics in the waiting area, called gearpron8.bsp IIRC, something like that.

This link is broken.

I'm also looking for a place to download the RA1 server (qwprogs.dat and what not) for LAN play.
